Extract data after matching pattern in ruby

puts myvalue[1] (my value is a String)

#My COmments
#Checked on 54
[Roll]
new line = see, that, cfiu\poli
check_that = roll\uiju, rolldeny that, its=oik, mao\ikir4
stares = roll\okik, roll\asde4, roll\kz98e

I'm trying to extract after Roll and assign in to an array

groups = myvalue[1].match(/^[Roll].*/)

Output I got 

new line = see that cfiu\poli

instead of (expected one)

new line = see that cfiu\poli
check_that = roll\uiju, rolldeny that, its=oik, mao\ikir4
stares = roll\okik, roll\asde4, roll\kz98e

How to do it, thanks

> string = "String begins here
[Roll]
new line = this is new line content
check_that = check that line content
stares = stares content"

> required_string = string.split("[Roll]").last.strip
# new line = this is new line content
# check_that = check that line content
# stares = stares content

Update:

> first_arry = required_string.split("\n").map{|e| e.split("=")}.map(&:first)
#=> ["new line ", "check_that ", "stares "] 
> second_arry = required_string.split("\n").map{|e| e.split("=")}.map(&:last)
#=> [" this is new line content", " check that line content", " stares content"]

Change your groups assign line to this:

groups = myvalue[1].partition(/\[Roll\]/).last
